How to Load and Use a Reusable Peptide Injection Pen

Big thanks to @Sydneycitysupplements for the hookup on the gear. He mixed my first one, but I had to figure out the rest. This guide is for anyone fumbling through their first time like I did. It’s basic, practical, and skips the clinical overkill.


What You’ll Need:​

  • Your peptide vial (e.g. BPC-157, TB500, HGH, etc.)
  • Bacteriostatic water (BAC)
  • 3ml syringe
  • Drawing needle
  • Air needle (optional but helpful)
  • Alcohol swabs
  • The cartridge that comes with your pen (looks like a skinny little vial with a stopper)
  • Your pen (2 parts)
  • A pen needle

Step-by-Step​

Step 1 – Clean up
Wash your hands. Seriously. Clear a space, wipe down your gear, and use alcohol swabs on the vial tops and cartridge.


Step 2 – Mix it
Reconstitute your peptide like you normally would.
Example: If you’ve got 10IU of HGH, and you want your pen to read cleanly, mix it 10IU to 1mL. The pen dials in IUs, so this keeps it simple.


Step 3 – Load the cartridge
  • Draw up your mixed peptide with a syringe.
  • Hold your cartridge and lightly press your thumb on the base.
  • (Optional) Vent the cartridge by jabbing a second small needle in off-centre to let air escape.
  • Slowly inject your peptide into the centre of the cartridge. Don’t rush it or you’ll blow the stopper out.

Step 4 – Load the pen
  • Unscrew your pen and insert the filled cartridge.
  • Push it back together. It’s firction fit and latched, so apply a bit of pressure until you see it latched of feel a click.

Step 5 – Prime the pen
  • Attach your pen needle.
  • Remove both the outer and inner caps.
  • Dial up a full dose (like you’re about to inject).
  • Hold upright and press the button to push air out.
  • Repeat with smaller doses until you see a drop at the tip.

Step 6 – Dose
  • Dial to your dose (e.g. 10 or 25 units).
  • Inject wherever you usually go sub-q.
  • The plunger will return to zero, and the pen is good to go again later.

Step 7 – Store

Cap your pen and stick it in the fridge. You’re done.

If anyone wants, please add this thread as needed, not sure if the AU section is the best place, please move if needed.

If you're inclined, I’ve got a much more in-depth version written like a clinical procedure, I was going to do a video or picture board type presentation. But life!

I used Chat GPT for this, so as you can read my atrocious grammar.

Helpful write up. My first time filling a 3ml vial I didn't think about the venting needle which caused a small expensive rocket and broken glass cleanup. I wouldn't recommend skipping venting if you're putting in more than 1ml.
 
I Haven't vented before, i just exchange the pressure with the syringe. I'd also wait a few hours between step 4 and 5 to let any miniature bubbles join together and escape the mixture otherwise you'll end up with a bubble inside and waste some of the peptides getting it out. Thanks for the write up juddy
